TL;DR

• Google could be working to bring the Google Wallet app to iOS devices.
• Strings spotted in a couple of Google apps hint at iOS-specific features in the Wallet app.
• The app could offer contactless payments using the NFC chip on iPhones as well.

Google Wallet has plenty of useful features: you can save loyalty cards, add passes and tickets, and make contactless payments through the app without pulling out a physical card. Google is also working on new features to improve the app and has started rolling out a redesign with full-screen passes and a better UI. Now, it seems Google is finally considering bringing Google Wallet back to iPhones.
